Chapter 23

Bella's POV

I woke up curled in a ball in the back of a moving car, I looked up and saw Jacob driving look straight at the road I gave no indication I was awake so I closed my eyes and thought of the horror which had happened just a matter of hours ago. My head ached as the continues tears rolled down my face hurt me emotionally and physically. Jacob had just killed the man I had ever truly loved and he sat there in the front of the car bringing us god knows where all calm. Had he no shame of what he did? I realized Jacob was mad but I had no idea he would kill Edward literally, I guess I never knew Jacob all that clearly anyway. I held a hand down to my stomach where mine and Edward's child were his name stung making the pain in my heart hurt like thousand needles inside me and poking forever at my broken heart. How could I expect to live now while Edward lay in his car or in the woods rotting, I whimpered as I thought of his beautiful heart not beating.

"When we get to this hotel, be on your best behavior" Jacob warned, I guess the sound of my weeping alerted him if me being awake

"Shut it Black" I snarled

"What's with the last name Bells?" was he kidding? Did he not realize what he had just done? Did he have multiple personality disorder?

"Bells?" I spat "Don't you dare call me that, how dare you act like nothing has happened when you have just killed the man I loved" I screamed holding onto my stomach as I sat up, I breathed in and out heavy angry breaths and Jacob looked through his mirror and saw where my hand was placed

"You're getting rid of that thing inside of you also, if you want a child you can have my child but not his" pure hatred dripped from his mouth

"No thanks, I don't wish to give birth to pups I'll be keeping this child" I emphasized "whether you like it or not" I stated looking out of the window, we were in the middle of no where I began to hum quietly to myself and looked won at my stomach, I smiled and rubbed it gently I sung quietly to the baby inside me

There's another world inside of me
That you may never see
There're secrets in this life
That I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away...
Or maybe I'm just blind...

This was the song Edward was singing while he was drunk, I smiled at the memory

Or maybe I'm just blind...

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down

Edward was always there for me, he held me when I was scared about Jacob

Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Love me when I'm gone...

I would always love Edward, even when he was gone

When your education X-Ray
Cannot see under my skin
I won't tell you a damn thing
That I could not tell my friends
Roaming through this darkness
I'm alive but I'm alone
Part of me is fighting this
But part of me is gone

A part of me was gone, it was half of my heart because the other half was with our child my heart was not my own it was always Edward and always will be and this child, our baby, would know what a wonderful man he was

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Or maybe I'm just blind...

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Love me when I'm gone...

I wouldn't give up trying to get away from Jacob, I would get away from him and I would buy a house where me and my child would be safe.

"I need to go to the hospital" I spoke to Jacob

"Why?" he questioned I indicated to my cut arm and he nodded, he didn't look slightly worried I was injured which only proved my point of him never really loving me it was all out of spite now, if he couldn't have me no one could. Well he would never have me.

***********

"Hi, my name is Isabella Swan I'm just wondering if someone could just stitch this up or something?" Jacob was close to me, his arms was securely around my waist much to my discomfort

"Of course, just please take a seat and I'll have someone help you, here" she gave me a piece of cloth which was nicely clean and white

"Thank you" Jacob walked us over to the blue plastic chairs and we waited for someone to come I looked at the clock and saw it was 2:00, where had the time gone? I clutched the wound as it stung slightly and I pursed my lips to stop from hissing.

4:00

"My god how long does it take" Jacob moaned I sighed and rolled my eyes

"Miss Swan?"

"Yes"

"Follow me please" the doctor with grey hair and wrinkles smiled warmly at me and indicated me to follow him

"You know your name is Mrs. Black" Jacob whispered in my ear as we were following the doctor into a room

"It would have been Mrs. Cullen if you would have left me alone" I hissed, harsh, but he deserved it

"Now, if you would just like to take a seat I'll stitch this up for you and bandage it up" he got the needles and bandage to his side and I sat opposite him

"I'm going to get some coffee" Jacob announced he walked out of the room and left me with the doctor

"You have to help me" I said urgently

"I'm sorry" he questioned stopping just center metes away from stitching my wound up

"You have to call the police, that man has just killed the man I love and is now holding me against my will" wow, that really didn't sound weird

"Em" the doctor was taken back but nodded "I'll get security down here right away" he pressed the button on the wall and went back to stitching my wound

"And em, I need a scan because I'm..."

"Pregnant I know, despite your obvious face of fear which had me suspecting in the first place your glowing, you look, apart from the fear, like my wife when we had our first son"

"What's his name?" I tilted my head to the side I winced as the needle hurt a bit

"Sorry, his name is Jonathan"

"Nice and what's yours?"

"My name is Greg"

"Do you have any other children? You said when you had your first"

"Yes I have a daughter called Emily" he got his wallet out of the inside of his coat and set the needle down "there they are" his eyes sparkled with joy "There's John when he was 7 and there's Emily when she was only 2"

"There's beautiful" I cooed, "They both of your eyes and they have such cute faces, and how old are they now?"

"John is 28 and is now married with a child of his own, I have a picture of her somewhere and Emily is 22 she's studying medicine, she wants to follow in mine and John footsteps, my poor wife has to deal with a house full of doctors" we chuckled "Emily still lives with us but John had obviously moved out" he looked away from the photo and looked at me "Treasure every moment with your child, because the year fly by the first thing you know your giving birth the next your saying goodbye as they go off to university"

I nodded and Jacob walked in with a up of coffee, Greg put his wallet away and dealt with the task at hand. About 5 minutes later, while Greg wrapped the bandage around my arm and Jacob sat on the bed behind me the door knocked

"Come in" Greg replied, three big security guards entered "Ah I would like that man reported to the police"

I heard Jacob move and try to escape but the security guards caught him and took him away
